Chairman Allen called the meeting to order.
Minutes of the meeting of November 19 meeting were approved as mailed.
The Chairman welcomed Mr, Larsen, State Auditor, and asked him to take a
few minutes and address the Council. Mr. Larsen stated that he had supported
the resolution which provided for the Treasurer and Auditor to succeed themselves in office. This resolution passed in the 1965 Legislature. He stated
that he had always had some reservations about changing every four years from
the Treasurer's office to the Auditor's office.
He stated that when he took over the Auditor's duties, he did not make
a complete change-over in personnel. I replaced those auditors who had
reached retirement age or who quit to take other jobs. All of the auditors
on my staff are graduates of an accredited university and two of them are
CPA's.
I believe I have upgraded the auditing procedures in the Auditor's
office. I have asked the Legislative Council to recognize me as the Legislative Auditor. The auditing profession is one of the most important jobs
in the state. I do not think there has been sufficient communication between
the Legislature and the State Auditor. We are in need of management as well
as checks and balances. We have gone into the pool car deal, and we have
made some very good recommendations. We have just completed auditing the
highway patrol and we have made some recommendations there.
